E and I jumped on a train and went to Art Basel. Not only did we get to see lots of fun art, but we also got the chance to race around Basel and eat delicious snacks and enjoy the sunshiny weather. Switzerland in the springtime is pretty damn cool.
Unfortunately, you are not allowed to take photographs in the halls (although I bet no one stopped Brad Pitt), but I did get to see some beautiful installations. Some of my favourite pieces were the Yoshitomo Nara haunted playhouse, the Nan Goldin retrospective, Annetta Mona Chisa and Lucia Tkacova's "Haiku" series of neon tubes:
The speech of Confucius;
is a crack in the upside-down growing
or, everyone's blonde
and Marcel van Eeden's "Sammlung Boryna" series.
